Neelesh Srinivas Salian commented on KAFKA-2145:
------------------------------------------------
[~parth.brahmbhatt]
I had a few additional questions:
1) Does the patch mean simply adding a field for ownername as String?
2) I feel the dependencies for such would extend to each topic and be
associated with the Topic generation as well.
3) TopicCommand.scala has describeTopic, alterTopic and createTopic methods
that could use a owner tag.
Thanks.

> We need to expose a way so users can identify users/groups that share
> ownership of topic. We discussed adding this as part of
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2035 and agreed that it will be
> simpler to add owner as a logconfig.
> The owner field can be used for auditing and also by authorization layer to
> grant access without having to explicitly configure acls.
